  • How much you can scratch a vacuum glass vacuum chamber before it comes to weak to hold vacuum? We decide to test that and film everything in super slow motion with Chronos 1.4 high speed cameras! DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME!

    The picture is bit weird since I had to use bright led panels for high speed cameras. But I think slow motion clips are so nice that it was well worth it.

      Well, you have your next series of videos.
      Make a tube, put material "x" on top, pull a vacuum and break it. Possibly with the press like I thought this video was going to do.

    • @henrituhola
      @henrituhola 6 лет назад +2

      Indeed worth it. Maybe it was great that it imploded only when you threw it with that depleted 9V battery that's always laying around in every Finnish room. It might not have imploded that well without full vacuum.

      This was really interesting Lauri/Annie how it took you to throw something(9-volt🔋battery)at it to FINALLY get the pressure chamber to implode.
      How about using a marshmallow next time in the vacuum chamber to see how big it gets?.

    I was a glaizier ( glass mechanic, installer ) for 30 years, and I can attest to the strength that glass can have in certain situations. It can also be very fragile in others. When you put the vacuum to the chamber with the crack in it, you effectively pulled the crack together even tighter. Glass can be some very unforgiving shit and I've seen people maimed and even one guy killed by it ( sliced carotid ) in my career. Be super careful when messing around with it, as a single little sliver in your bloodstream can actually kill you. Subscriber since the begining and I'm thrilled to see your channel growing! Keep up the good work!

      I think some experts were wrong this time about how brittle these bell shaped glass things are. But the explosion was bit larger than I was thinking.

    • @thrownchance
      @thrownchance 6 лет назад +31

      The reason why it didn't break is because the chamber is subject to only compressive stresses. Cracks can only grow with tensile stresses.

    From the slo-mo footage it doesn't really look like all the scratching and the big crack had anything to do with the final implosion. The breakage started where the battery hit and spread from there.

    • @Monni95
      @Monni95 5 лет назад +1

      True... You can scratch the glass as much as you want unless there becomes actual hole that would let air come inside. It's the opposite if you try to overpressurize the chamber as then the glass might actually bend through the scratches. Throwing the battery did actually cause so much surface tension that the new crack went through and caused avalanche effect.

    I think the bell jar top is a parabolic curve which is very strong during compression, which is what a vacuum does to that jar. It does not want to give off energy, but absorbs energy. Just look at bridges and how those arcs are, much like the top of the bell jar.

    The high-speed of that breaking is phenomenal. Looks like a collapsing star. The outer layers (glass) are thrown inward by gravity (atmospheric pressure on the glass) & when the glass is sucked into the center & collects making a semi-solid "core" due to the smaller fragments etc & the slower, larger shards hit the core & bounce out. So nice to see physics working so similarly.

  • @flomojo2u
    @flomojo2u 6 лет назад

    Very cool implosion! Glass is just really, really strong, and as long as the forces are balanced across its surface it’s tough to destroy... Right up to the point where you put a significant amount of force at well, a point, and then the forces are applied laterally instead uniformly inward (For a vacuum chamber). I’ve had to cut glass quite a few times and it’s always a little surprising how much force it takes to snap- hopefully along the scratch you made, and not all over. You pretty much have a single shot at making that scratch since otherwise the cracks tend spread outward from any additional scratches since you can never scratch exactly the same place.

    Great video Laurie. But all the scratches you made, and the crack, were in directions where compressive forces held the glass together. There is just one scratch you missed, inside the glass around the circumference of the cylinder. That’s the only place where there are tensile forces. My guess is just one scratch around half of the glass (not repeated) will cause it to fail. Do you have another? 👍
